Uncle Bub,

I remember all the Thankgivings that we spent with you, Aunt Gracie and Patty Ann at your house. All 8 of us kids and Mom and Dad. What great memories!!!!

Even the last months of playing cards and eating out, you were always the same wonderful, funny Uncle. I know you are in Heaven playing cards with Mom, Dad and Patty Ann.

From childhood to adulthood you were always there for us.

I love you and miss you.

Uncle Bub I'll always remember staying all night at your house many times with Patty, and then you driving us to pick up Aunt Grace at the Deshler Hilton late in the evenings...even on cold snowy evenings. You sometimes bought us hot chocolate at the drugstore in the Deshler hotel. I'll always remember your famous two words that you told us as kids and even this year told my grandkids... 'gooney bird'.

I'll miss you! Sue Ann.
